A moment ago, I was at a point in my busy day where I didn’t know which task to attend to first. I have more than one list of things to accomplish, as well as things which haven’t even made it to the “to do” list. Like so many of us, I wear many hats. I am a wife, mother, daughter and friend. I am a hypnotherapist, an artist, an author, a speaker, a businesswoman.
When I became mindful and asked for direction, I picked up a book, held it for a moment and opened the page to this….
Observe your place in the Universe.
“Be very very still and allow every new experience to take place in your life without any resis-tance whatsoever. You do not have to do anything, you simply have to be and let things happen.” ~ Eileen Caddy, Footprints on the Path
It was a powerful reminder that I am human being not a human doing. And that it is absolutely okay to allow myself to just be. I will never get it all done. I’m going to give myself permission “to be and let things happen”. I wanted to share that so maybe you’ll give yourself permission too.
We are often in a place of critical self-judgment and self-imposed overwhelm, considering that we should be doing this or we should have accomplished that by now.
When we allow ourselves to slow down to savor the moment, we are reminded that it really is a beautiful moment. It is a now moment. And all we really have is this now moment. Life is easy. Life is joyful. Just be.
